Job Vacancy King's Park Primary School is a non-denominational school that was built in 1903 and serves the Dalkeith community. The school is built next to King's Park and the children have access to this for leisure and to enrich their learning opportunities. The school has a roll of 494 children from P1- P7 and offers 94 full time ELC places. The roll is diverse and includes pupils from all 5 quintile data zones and this range is also reflected in each year group. Our school is part of the Dalkeith Learning Community and most of our P7 learners transition to Dalkeith High School with some moving on to Lasswade and Newbattle High School. We are strengthening our links with Dalkeith High school and have good links with the other primary schools in our learning community. We have a number of children transitioning into P1 from a range of Partner Providers as well as our own ELC. We have continued to focus upon developing effective partnerships with parents, carers and the wider community. We recognise the important role that parents and carers play in their child's learning and development and we offer a range of opportunities for parents and carers to share in their child's learning. Our local community is central to our school and we have good community links and partnerships.
